Tell us why you became a teacher

I always had an interest in babysitting and working with children and knew I wanted to teach!

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Having a former student share with me that she went into teaching because of being in my classroom! She wrote a paper in college sharing how much we enjoyed having me as a teacher and that was a big part of why she went to college for elementary education!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off STUDENT LOAN from getting my Master’s in Education!!! Would be incredibly helpful to get it paid off!!!!
